I usually see Vander and a few other members.

It's a great show every summer with all makes.

I'm not going to make it this year, but it is a HUGE event. I have seen over 100 Mercedes there covering every decade.

This is a great event. When I lived in NE Ohio, I went a number of times. Just a great venue and lots of cool cars.

I took my Alfa there several years ago. What a great event. Had to be a thousand cars on display.

Upload to YouTube and post the links.

Thanks for the Pics!  Maybe me and my Pagoda will be able to make it next year.  (Fingers crossed 🤞)

Do you know if that gray 300 coupe is fuel injected?  It looks like a fuel injected one I saw at Joe's a few years ago.

It is a 1957 fuel injected.  It belongs to Harvy Rice.
